These people are not for you neither are they for what you are for. It is just that They are against what you are against. And comrades will make strange bedfellows. This will cause people to come together who are not for you, not for what you are for, but against what you are against. They will team up with you to help fight a greater enemy. As the saying goes, “the enemy of your enemy is your friend.” But don’t be confused by their association, they will only be with you until the victory is accomplished. These people are like scaffolding. They come into your life to fulfill a purpose. And when the purpose is fulfilled, the scaffolding is removed. But don’t be upset when they are removed because the building always remains when the scaffolding is removed.

Expect the constituents and the comrades to leave you and desert you after a while. Don’t be upset when they don’t react to your dreams the way you expected them to because they were never really with you the first place. Be careful then who you tell your dream to. Because if you tell your dream to your constituents, they will desert you and try to fulfill the dream without you. If you tell it to your comrades, they won’t support it because they never were for it anyway. If you find a few people in your entire life with whom you can share your dreams with, you are a blessed somebody. I can tell you how to Identify people who are really for you.

If they are really for you, they will weep with you when you weep, they will rejoice with you when you rejoice. When you walk in a room and tell somebody good news, stop being happy for a minute and watch their reaction. If they’re are not happy for you, shut your mouth and walk back out of the door. Because when they’re really connected to you, they’ll be happy for you. So pause for a second and ask your circle of friends. Are you happy for me? If you don’t get the right reaction don’t tell him/her anything else. You need somebody who’s really gonna be happy for you. And God is faithful enough to give you such. If you ever find such persons, celebrate God for them. Don’t worry about those that left. Constituents and comrades will always leave. You will always meet these 3 people. Live your dreams.

These group are not into you, they’re into what you are for. And as long as you are for what they are for, they will walk with you, and labor with you. But never think they are for you. You have to know this because, if they meet somebody else that will further their agenda they will leave you, because they were never for you. They were just for what you were for. And by the time you get through falling in love with them, they will break your heart and hook up with somebody else, who is for what you are for, because it was never about you anyway; it was about the causes that you represent. They are your constituents.

To be covered by God and walk in the area of your destiny, you can’t be limited to working with people who looks just like you. Watch out for the character and study their ingredients.

1. Confidants: You will have very few of them. They will love you unconditionally. They’re into you whether you’re up or down, right or wrong. If you get into trouble, they get into trouble with you. They’ll come get you out of the crack house. You can open up and share anything with them. You will never inherit your kingdom until you find your confidant. You can’t be David till you find your Jonathan. Having a good confidant is the Key that unlocks the kingdom. These ones can mentor you for what God is going to do next in your life. These people are for you, they’re with you, they are there to make sure you reach your destiny. They will confront you. They’ll get in your face , they’ll get in your business, they will tell you when you’re wrong because they are confidants. If you have 2 or 3 of them in a life time, you are a blessed person. Without them you will never be who God called you to be. The problem with most people is that everybody they run around with is under them. And so you are for ever feeding people who can’t feed you. And after years of feeding them, they begin to drain you. You got to have somebody who can feed you, so you can feed somebody else. You need to find your confidant.

57 Solid years, We’re still together. Still standing tall. Despite the Crisis, we remain stronger. Love your Country Nigerians and pray for her. No one prospers in a Nation He doesn’t like. No body has ALL the answers to the repairs of this nation either. But if it’s in your heart, God will place it in your hands. Find your place Nigerians and fill it!

Words are insufficient to describe how much I appreciate the quality of love shown me yesterday on my birthday. For every call, wish, SMS and love shown me, I really wanna say I’m grateful. May your joy and your smile break beyond bounds like the morning Sun. My heart goes out to you all!!!

How did I survive these past years of my life? Lemme think!…. It must be GRACE. Your hand kept me through, even through the valleys of the shadows of death. Your Rod and your staff are always there. You prepared banquets before me, even in the presence of my enemies. You anointed my head with oil and my Cup still runs over. Surely Goodness and Mercies follows me all the days of my life. Happy birthday to Mee!
